Teaching Standards Evidence Coding PowerPoint (PGCE / SCITT Trainees)

A structured PowerPoint template designed for teacher trainees to organise and code evidence against the Teachers’ Standards (TS1–TS8) during their training placement.

This resource allows trainees to copy and paste evidence, screenshots, lesson materials, or observation notes directly into slides and link them clearly to the relevant teaching standard. Each slide corresponds to a specific Teachers’ Standard and includes the sub-standard codes (e.g., TS1a, TS2b, TS4d) so trainees can accurately categorise their evidence.

The template works as a digital evidence portfolio, making it easy to track progress across placements and prepare documentation for mentor meetings, progress reviews, and final assessment.

How it works:

Insert a screenshot or piece of evidence (lesson plan, student work, feedback, etc.) onto the relevant slide.

Label the evidence using the correct Teachers’ Standard code (e.g., TS4a – effective use of lesson time).

Colour-code the evidence to highlight key themes or types of practice.

Duplicate slides when adding multiple pieces of evidence for the same standard.

Organise slides by lesson or teaching week if desired.

Export or print sections as a PDF evidence bundle for each placement.

The PowerPoint includes sections for:

• TS1 – Set high expectations
• TS2 – Promote good progress and outcomes
• TS3 – Demonstrate good subject knowledge
• TS4 – Plan and teach well-structured lessons
• TS5 – Adapt teaching to respond to pupil needs
• TS6 – Use assessment effectively
• TS7 – Manage behaviour effectively
• TS8 – Fulfil wider professional responsibilities
• Part Two – Personal and professional conduct

This system helps trainees quickly organise large amounts of evidence, ensuring that every piece of practice can be clearly linked to the relevant professional standard.

Ideal for:

• PGCE / SCITT teacher trainees
• Initial Teacher Training portfolios
• Mentor review meetings
• Teaching Standards evidence folders
